The Village Traffic Engineer shall place and maintain traffic
control signs, signals and devices when and as required under the
traffic ordinances of the Village to make effective the provisions
of said ordinances and may place and maintain such additional traffic
control devices as he/she may deem necessary to regulate traffic under
the traffic ordinances of the Village or under State law or to guide
or warn traffic.

All traffic control signs, signals and devices shall conform
to the manual and specifications approved by the State Highways and
Transportation Commission or resolution adopted by the Board of Trustees
of the Village. All signs or signals required hereunder for a particular
purpose shall so far as practicable be uniform as to type and location
throughout the Village. All traffic control devices so erected and
not inconsistent with the provisions of this Title shall be official
traffic control devices.

The driver of any vehicle shall obey the instructions of any
official traffic control device applicable thereto placed in accordance
with the provisions of this Title, unless otherwise directed by a
traffic or Police Officer, subject to the exceptions granted the driver
of an authorized emergency vehicle in this Title.

No provision of this Title for which official traffic control
devices are required shall be enforced against an alleged violator
if at the time and place of the alleged violation an official device
is not in proper position and sufficiently legible to be seen by an
ordinarily observant person. Whenever a particular Section does not
state that official traffic control devices are required, such Section
shall be effective even though no devices are erected or in place.

Whenever official traffic control devices are placed in position
approximately conforming to the requirements of this Title, such devices
shall be presumed to have been so placed by the official act or direction
of lawful authority, unless the contrary shall be established by competent
evidence.

Any official traffic control device placed pursuant to the provisions
of this Title and purporting to conform to the lawful requirements
pertaining to such devices shall be presumed to comply with the requirements
of this Title, unless the contrary shall be established by competent
evidence.

Whenever traffic is controlled by traffic control signals exhibiting
different colored lights or colored lighted arrows, successively one
(1) at a time or in combination, only the colors green, red and yellow
shall be used except for special pedestrian signals carrying a word
legend, and said lights shall indicate and apply to drivers of vehicles
and pedestrians as follows:

Vehicular traffic facing a circular green signal may proceed
straight through or turn right or left unless a sign at such place
prohibits either such turn. But vehicular traffic, including vehicles
turning right or left, shall yield the right-of-way to other vehicles
and to pedestrians lawfully within the intersection or an adjacent
crosswalk at the time such signal is exhibited.

Vehicular traffic facing a green arrow signal, shown alone or
in combination with another indication, may cautiously enter the intersection
only to make the movement indicated by such arrow or such other movement
as is permitted by other indications shown at the same time. Such
vehicular traffic shall yield the right-of-way to pedestrians lawfully
within an adjacent crosswalk and to other traffic lawfully using the
intersection.

Unless otherwise directed by a pedestrian control signal as provided in Section 315.070, pedestrians facing any green signal, except when the sole green signal is a turn arrow, may proceed across the roadway within any marked or unmarked crosswalk.

Vehicular traffic facing a steady yellow signal is thereby warned
that the related green movement is being terminated or that a red
indication will be exhibited immediately thereafter when vehicular
traffic shall not enter the intersection.

Pedestrians facing a steady yellow signal, unless otherwise directed by a pedestrian control signal as provided in Section 315.070, are thereby advised that there is insufficient time to cross the roadway before a red indication is shown and no pedestrian shall then start to cross the roadway.

Vehicular traffic facing a steady red signal alone shall stop before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or, if none, then before entering the intersection and shall remain standing until a green indication is shown except as provided in Subsection (A)(3)(b) below.

The driver of a vehicle which is stopped as close as practicable
at the entrance to the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection
or, if none, then at the entrance to the intersection in obedience
to a red signal may cautiously enter the intersection to make a right
turn but shall yield the right-of-way to pedestrians and other traffic
proceeding as directed by the signal at the intersection, except that
the State Highways and Transportation Commission with reference to
an intersection involving a State highway, and local authorities with
reference to an intersection involving other highways under their
jurisdiction, may prohibit any such right turn against a red signal
at any intersection where safety conditions so require, said prohibition
shall be effective when a sign is erected at such intersection giving
notice thereof.

In the event an official traffic control signal is erected and
maintained at a place other than an intersection, the provisions of
this Section shall be applicable except as to those provisions which
by their nature can have no application. Any stop required shall be
made at a sign or marking on the pavement indicating where the stop
shall be made, but in the absence of any such sign or marking, the
stop shall be made at the signal.

WAIT or DON'T WALK: No pedestrian shall start to cross the roadway
in the direction of such signal, but any pedestrian who has partially
completed his/her crossing on the walk signal shall proceed to a sidewalk
or safety zone while the wait signal is showing.

Flashing red (stop signal). When a red lens
is illuminated with rapid intermittent flashes, drivers of vehicles
shall stop before entering the nearest crosswalk at an intersection
or at a limit line when marked or, if none, then before entering the
intersection, and the right to proceed shall be subject to the rules
applicable after making a stop at a stop sign.

When lane direction control signals are placed over the individual
lanes of a street or highway, vehicular traffic may travel in any
lane over which a green signal is shown but shall not enter or travel
in any lane over which a red signal is shown.

No person shall place, maintain or display upon or in view of
any highway an unauthorized sign, signal, marking or device which
purports to be or is an imitation of or resembles an official traffic
control device, or which attempts to direct the movement of traffic,
or which hides from view or interferes with the effectiveness of any
official traffic control device.

No person shall without lawful authority attempt to or in fact
alter, deface, injure, knock down or remove any official traffic control
device or any inscription, shield or insignia thereon or any other
part thereof.

The Village Traffic Engineer shall have authority to declare
any street or part thereof a play street and to place appropriate
signs or devices in the roadway indicating and helping to protect
the same.

Whenever authorized signs are erected indicating any street
or part thereof as a play street, no person shall drive a vehicle
upon any such street or portion thereof except drivers of vehicles
having business or whose residences are within such closed area, and
then any said driver shall exercise the greatest care in driving upon
any such street or portion thereof.

To designate and maintain, by appropriate devices, marks or
lines upon the surface of the roadway, crosswalks at intersections
where in his/her opinion there is particular danger to pedestrians
crossing the roadway and at such other places as he/she may deem necessary.

Where such traffic lanes have been marked, it shall be unlawful for
the operator of any vehicle to fail or refuse to keep such vehicle
within the boundaries of any such lane except when lawfully passing
another vehicle or preparatory to making a lawful turning movement.
